Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Debian releases and lifecycle.
How long are Debian versions supported?
Debian stable releases receive approximately 3 years of full support from the security team, followed by 2 years of LTS support from volunteers, totaling about 5 years.
How often does Debian release new versions?
Debian releases a new stable version roughly every 2 years. There is no fixed schedule as releases happen when they are ready.
What is Debian LTS?
Debian LTS is a project that extends security support for old Debian stable releases beyond the standard support window. It is maintained by volunteers and companies.
Should I use Debian or Ubuntu for servers?
Both are excellent choices. Debian is more conservative with slower release cycles. Ubuntu has more commercial support through Canonical and faster access to newer packages.
